This right here, is what new freelancers need to read! I don't need or want a six-figure salary from wiriting (would be nice) but as you say the emotional, health costs and wellbeing are not worth it. But time and time again, I found through my own research that people selling 'become a writer overnight dream' were just selling their $300 course, while they weren't actually writing much!

You get it. There are two ways to make a huge sum money as a writer;

1. Focus on selling digital products like courses or sell your writing services by writing for someone else.

2. Be determined to gain a following/ community, get sponsorships or ask people to donate.
